Playing Poor Lyrics by Whores.

Gold.

2016

Where’s the money?
Where’s the fame?
I was told by now they’d know my name
I tell the secrets
I tell the lies
I try, I try
I wanna be forgiven
I don't care who takes the blame
You’re all my enemies
You’re all the same

[Chorus]
I know you're scared
Blue blood turns to pus in hell
All, already
Dead inside
Shove it in, shove it in, shove it in
Open wide

I don’t care who you know
We’re all done here, cause I say so
Everyday is the same
Quit this fucking game

I wanna be forgiven
I don't care who takes the blame
You’re all my enemies
You’re all the same

[Chorus]
I know you're scared
Blue blood turns to pus in hell
Dead inside, dead inside
Shove it in, shove it in, shove it in
Open wide

Where’s the money?
Where’s the fame?
Told by now they’d know my name
Secrets and lies
I tried, I tried

Dead inside
Dead inside
We’re all already dead inside
Dead inside
Dead inside
We’re all already dead inside
